This keeps happening all over the (mostly) old world. Some textures are completely see-through yet you can still make out the shapes:

Other examples would be some centaur tents near the crossroads in Northern Barrens and some stairs in the valley of strenght in Orgrimmar.
I tried updating my drivers and changing some graphical settings, including switching from DirectX 12 to 11, but nothing works! I can’t find a proper fix for this. Anyone else?
Have you tried repairing the wow client via the launcher?
No, would that reset anything like my settings or addons?
I have never used that function, so i don’t know for sure, but possibly yes.
So better backup your wtf and addons folders.
Indeed it would but it is nessesary. Going by what you have mentioned already, a scan and repair would be a good step as it does sound like a game file not loading correctly. Once you do a scan and repair, it is vital that you don’t reinstall any addons as you need to launch the game without any installed once. When you do, check if the issue is still apparent and then load in your addons again one by one.
If it still doesnt work after you try that, get back to us with your system files. Copy them over to a website like Pastebin when you have it created and provide the link using the </> symbol above the text box when responding.
I have the same problems, those centaur tents are indeed bugged and invisible if you get too close to them, troll huts in dwarf starting area are exactly the same, invisible when you get close to them.
Had a quick check but I can’t recreate the issue. The tents in both areas load fine for me without any missing textures. Did you try the scan/repair or manually delete the three folders (WTF, Cache, Interface) from the main installation folder?
I’ll try that when i’m back from work!
had the same issue a couple of months ago in the exact same locations…found this post and it worked a treat for me
It was this, fixing the game files didn’t help and it were not my addons out of all things
But CMAA and FXAA make the game look bad, when can we expect a fix to MSAA?
This is kinda ridiculous btw because it’s been happening since forever now.
I’ll take a look but do make sure to report this in game using the bug report tool. That way it can be highlighted to the developers that this is still happening. Glad that we can find a workaround in the meantime
FXAA is really old tech and blurry.
CMAA is ok, shouldn’t look bad, but obviously you want to use MSAA if your GPU isn’t too slow.
